PETALING JAYA: Independent doubles shuttler Tan Wee Kiong is heartbroken following the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM)’s decision to leave him and his partner Goh V Shem out of the Asia Team Championships.

Wee Kiong feels BAM should have at least given them a spot as they are the world No. 12 pair and scrambling to earn points in the race to qualify for the Olympic Games in Tokyo.
